Dear Woodlands Art League Members, Due to the recent events surrounding the COVID-19 Viral Pandemic, the State of Texas is strongly discouraging social gatherings to prevent the spread of the corona virus. So, until further notice, ALL Art League events are suspended. This means meetings, classes, workshops, and paintgroups. We hope you can take this time to keep creating your art. Stay tuned for announcements regarding the resumption of events. The Woodlands Art League Board
Just a quick note to share some information. Since we are mostly confined to our homes, many of us are focusing on things other than art. That's okay. There are other priorities, and other distractions that make our creativity take a back seat for a while. But consider this, you are reading this because of one of the greatest marvels of the modern age, the internet. With this unique portal, you can search for and find things you might never be able to experience live. You can learn new things or discover new facets to things you may already know. The point is, take care of your health, physically, mentally, spiritually, and any other "-ally" you can. Your creativity is just one part of healing. You've got the tools to do incredible things. So try them. Do something different, maybe. Experiment, learn, or just play. It's okay to have fun. Nobody's watching (unless you left your webcam on). And, if you feel compelled to do something more "involved," think about sending a hand made card to a senior in a local facility. Sew some masks for folks who are having trouble getting them. (There are many videos and instructions on the web.) Call someone on the phone and actually talk! Or learn how to Skype (or equivalent) and see them! You don't have to be a couch potato. And when this is over, you can look back and say, "I am really glad I did that. Now what's the next thing I can do?" Dave |

Woodlands Area Art Trading Cards Group Meet, Create, Trade, and Collect! Art Trading Cards are tiny gems - 2-1/2" X3-1/2" - that you make and trade with others. Any medium can be used, paints, collage, fabrics and more as long as they can fit into a standard trading card pocket. Create some to trade on the spot, or bring some with you in any state of completion. Bring your favorite markers, pens, scrapbooking materials, paints, etc or use ours the first time. Scissors, a fine line permanent pen such as a Sharpie or gel pens, and a glue stick are helpful. Don't have anything yet? Come anyway and begin your mini art collection.
